Bessie-isms:

* Don’t keep old, outdated beliefs and concepts around. Just like you need to clean your closet, you need to clean your mind.

*Move on. Stop fighting yesterday’s battles and rehashing yesterday’s news. The past is immutable, all you can change is your future. Do so.

Quotable:

The test of good manners is to be patient with bad ones.

Solomon Ibn Gabirol
